Unleash your Child’s Creativity with Coding
Start your Child on their journey in logical thinking with our immersive and enriching preschool programme, suitable for ages 4-6, to give them a head start on coding. Involving physical activity, where they get the chance to learn logic and commands using live-sized blocks, children get to act out these commands with their classmates, with lots of running around (specially designed for active little ones!).
Themes range from Nursery Rhymes, Stories, Nature and Fairy Tales, subjects that our little ones love the most, to engage all their senses as they are challenged to think logically, whether it is to program a fairy to fly, vanquish evil with a Wizard’s wand, or making monkeys jump on the bed at different speeds.
With our MIT-inspired curriculum and small class ratio (1:6), your child is guaranteed a strong start on their foundation in Coding and Mathematics which will put them in good stead for the Elementary/Primary School curriculum.
P/s: Did we also mention that the kids get to play with a host of uber cool tech toys? Come and join us for hours of fun at our campus!~ #seeyousoon!
This course is designed specifically for kids aged 5-7 in Coding Lab’s series of coding classes for kids aged 4-12. Want to know more? Read our FAQ on our coding for kids courses here.

Unleash your Child’s Creativity with Coding
Designed specifically for children (age 8-12) who are completely new to programming / coding, this program teaches our children coding, a skill that is important for the future.
Children will be using Scratch, a graphics based computer coding language developed by Mitchel Resnick, LEGO Papert Professor of Learning Research and head of the Lifelong Kindergarten group at the MIT media labs.
At the end of the course, students feel empowered to create, design and develop computational media which they enjoy in their daily lives. They start their journey to build the next Angry Bird or Flappy Bird here.
Most importantly, this programme strengthens their logical and problem solving skills which are useful in many aspects of life, be it immediately in their studies (e.g. Mathematics Problem Sums, Science, etc) or in the future.
This course is designed specifically for kids aged 8-12 in Coding Lab’s series of coding classes for kids aged 4-12. Want to know more? Read our FAQ on our coding for kids courses here.

Who is this for?
Student must have successfully completed Coding Lab (Beginner) course. Students who have learned Scratch elsewhere will need to go through a placement test. (In our FAQ, we share our rationale for doing so)
Unleash your Child’s Creativity with Coding
In this program, students build on what they had learnt in the beginner class to the next level. The concept of project planning will be introduced to allow students to better develop bigger, more complex and more interesting programming projects. We will also revisit each of the key elements (Animations, Stories and Games) and introduce more advanced techniques. These advanced computational concepts will provide students with a wider tool sets to better translate their creativity and imagination into reality.
